Vintage, Gucci, & More of My Favorite Things

Sharing just a few of my favorite things today.

I am always on the lookout for fun, unique brooches. I don't wear them all that often, but I do like collecting them. My favorites are my mother's and grandmother's.

My Search for a new rug & My Love For Opalhouse For Target

This summer, has been a very busy summer for us. I've been trying to get some small projects done around the house, work on my flower garden and have hosted a few backyard parties. 

One of the main projects that I have been working on, is trying to find a rug for our family room. When looking for a rug that big, it is tough to make a decision, at least it was for me. With it being such a large purchase, I didn't want to have to worry about the hassle of returning it, if I didn't like it. Plus, I think at some point, I was going rug blind, after looking at too many options. 

Here is one of the rugs that I found for our master bath. I don't know if you have ever tried the website, RugsUSA.com, but, they have an option where you can download a picture of your living space, where you are wanting to place the rug, and then play around with different rugs to see which ones you like the best. Also, if you sign up for their emails, they often send you a 50-55% off coupon to use, which is such a huge discount!

Gucci Heels, Vintage & Some New Goals

The past few weeks have been tough. Trying to get the house ready for summer, pulling weeds, planting flowers etc. is exhausting. I have been doing better at taking some time off for myself and it has been helping with my stress and overall well being. 

Taking time to relax, read a book or even exercising, all has been a huge help on my mental well being. Working nights, seems to be getting harder and harder. It really takes a toll not only mentally, but physically too. 

I just started this new novel. Hopefully it won't take me all summer to read!
